PAPER FLORIST DIES

This set of Paper Florist Dies really caught my eye and I knew they had to be on my very first order!  LOVE them to create a quick & easy card…perfect for our Creatively Simple challenge!

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
• The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Berry Burst cardstock was embossed with the new Exposed Brick Embossing Folder.  The edges were sponged with Berry Burst Ink.
• The Paper Florist Die flower petals were cut from Basic White cardstock.  I used one large and two small.  The centers were cut with the Dies from Daffodil Delight, again two small and one large.  The fern leaves were cut from Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock, the smaller leaves from Garden Green cardstock.  All were assembled on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• The Go to Greetings was stamped with Memento Black Ink on 1/2 x 2-1/2 Lemon Lime Twist cardstock and added to the front.
• A trio of Iridescent Rhinestones were added to the background.
